Medication adherence will directly affect the validity of primary endpoint indicator. This article discussed how to improve the medication adherence of clomiphene citrate based on PCOSact. We found that 20 (3+15+2) cases were "protocol violation" and there were cases in which researchers made mistakes while distributing medicine and guiding patients how to take medicine. Focusing on these problems we sumed up experience and emphasized the importance of medication compliance through the following aspects:(1) Improvement of insite supervision and remote monitoring; (2) Standardization training for research assistants; (3) Health education for subjects.
Prosthetics and orthotics is an applied discipline which require students to have a good ability of clinical application. However, the present doctor-patient tension poses great difficulties in students’ clinical practice and study, and thus proposes higher requirements in the talent cultivation. Standardized patients (SP), as a newly established teaching mode, has been applied well in such areas as internal medicine, diagnostics and clinical care for about 20 years in this country. However, in prosthetics and orthotics, we hardly have any SP teaching experience in China. According to the experience of using SP in clinical medicine, this article discusses the necessity of SP in the teaching of prosthetics and orthotics, explains the advantages and disadvantages of SP teaching, and analyzes the feasibility of SP application in the teaching of prosthetics and orthotics under the present situation. Finally, this article concludes that using SP can improve students’ motivation, interest in learning and communication skills with patients. Therefore, it will become a research direction and development trend of prosthetics and orthotics.
ObjectiveTo analyze the value of structured electronic medical records for pulmonary nodules in increasing the ability of outpatient service and hospital management by resident physicians.MethodsWe included 40 trainees [94 males and 26 females aged 22-31 (26.45±2.81) years] who were trained in the standardized training base for surgical residents in our hospital from January 2018 to January 2021. The trainees were randomly divided into two groups including a structured group using the structured electronic medical record for pulmonary nodule and an unstructured group using unstructured electronic medical record designed by our department. The time of completing hospitalization records and first-time course records, the quality of course records, the accuracy of issuing admission orders, the quality of teaching rounds, and patient’s satisfaction between the two groups were analyzed and compared.Results(1) The average time in the structured group to complete inpatient medical records was significantly shorter than that of the unstructured group (53.61±8.12 min vs. 84.25±16.09 min, P<0.010); the average time in the structured group to complete the first-time course record was shorter than that of the unstructured group (13.20±5.43 min vs. 27.51±8.62 min, P<0.010), and there was a significant statistical difference between the two groups. (2) The overall teaching round quality score of the students in the structured group was significantly higher than that in the unstructured group (84.21±15.61 vs. 70.91±12.28, P<0.010). (3) The score of the medical record writing quality of the structured group was significantly higher than that of the unstructured group (80.25±9.22 vs. 74.22±5.40, P<0.010).ConclusionThe structured electronic medical record specific for pulmonary nodules can effectively improve the training efficiency in the standardized training of surgical residents, improve the clinical ability to deal with pulmonary nodules, improve the integrity and accuracy of key clinical data collected by students, and improve doctor-patient relationship.

Objective To explore the application of the Handbook for the Training Nurses in the standardized training for nurses in pediatric surgery. Methods Twenty-four training nurses trained under the instruction of the Handbook for the Training Nurses in Department of Pediatric Surgery from July 2014 to December 2015 were included as the observation group. Their training effects were compared historically with those of twenty-four training nurses who were trained without the help of the handbook from January 2013 to June 2014 (the control group). Results After the completion of the half-year training, theoretical score of training nurses in the observation group was better than that in the control group, and the difference was significant (87.16±4.18 vs. 83.71±5.46; t=2.492, P=0.016). Meanwhile, the specialist practical skill examination of training nurses in the observation group, such as femoral vein blood collection, replacement of drainage bag and indwelling needle infusion in children, and emergency practical skill examination such as cardiopulmonary resuscitation and the use of simple respirator were higher than those in the control group; and the working performance scores of training nurses in the observation group, such as the ability to adapt to the environment, patient satisfaction, nursing document writing, work efficiency and morning questions were better than those in the control group; the differences were significant (P< 0.05). Conclusion The Handbook for the Training Nurses can help the training nurses to adjust their working environment, master the practical skills and nursing knowledge in pediatric surgery.

We introduce the setting and running of the full-time teaching position in West China Hospital in this paper.
Objective To explore the application value of standardized patient (SP)-based teaching method in the teaching of medical history taking for international students. Methods During the autumn semester of 2017, 96 international medical students were randomly divided into two groups, with 48 students in the SP-based teaching group and 48 students in the conventional teaching group. The test scores of medical history taking in English in internal medical practice of the two groups were compared. The teaching feedback from the international students was collected and evaluated by online questionnaire survey. Results The scores of medical history taking examination in internal medical practice of the students using SP-based teaching method were higher than those of the students using conventional teaching method (86.5±9.7 vs.78.2±10.6), and the difference was statistically significant (t=3.983, P<0.001). According to the questionnaire analysis, in terms of whether the current teaching method could enhance learning interest, improve communication ability, promote clinical skills, train clinical thinking, and highlight humanistic care, students with positive views in the SP-based teaching group accounted for 92.86%, 97.62%, 85.71%, 90.48%, and 95.24%, respectively, while students with positive views in the conventional teaching group accounted for 90.00%, 87.50%, 82.50%, 77.50%, and 97.50%, respectively, and the differences were not statistically significant (P>0.05). Conclusions Well-trained SP has a good application value in clinical practice of internal medicine and diagnostics teaching for international students.

MethodsThe current early gastric cancer treatment guidelines around the world were analyzed and the standardized treatment patterns for early gastric cancer were concluded. ResultsThe accurate preoperative evaluation for early gastric cancer is the basis of standardized treatment which can be divided into staging evaluation and histological evaluation.The staging evaluation is focused on the gastric wall invasion and lymph node involvement of the tumor while the histologic evaluation emphasize the histological type and grading of the tumor.According to the precise evaluation for early gastric cancer, endoscopic surgery, laparoscopic surgery, open surgery, and multimodal therapy can be applied individually to the patients.Different treatment methods have their indications, but the indications of the therapies in different guidelines are suggested with slight differences. ConclusionIn clinical practice, the choice of treatment should be made with comprehensive consideration of diagnosis and individual characteristics of patients to achieve the most benefit on prognosis.
The establishment of brain metabolic network is based on 18fluoro-deoxyglucose positron emission computed tomography (18F-FDG PET) analysis, which reflect the brain functional network connectivity in normal physiological state or disease state. It is now applied to basic and clinical brain functional network research. In this paper, we constructed a metabolic network for the cerebral cortex firstly according to 18F-FDG PET image data from patients with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE).Then, a statistical analysis to the network properties of patients with left or right TLE and controls was performed. It is shown that the connectivity of the brain metabolic network is weakened in patients with TLE, the topology of the network is changed and the transmission efficiency of the network is reduced, which means the brain metabolic network connectivity is extensively impaired in patients with TLE. It is confirmed that the brain metabolic network analysis based on 18F-FDG PET can provide a new perspective for the diagnose and therapy of epilepsy by utilizing PET images.
